When stars cease to fuse hydrogen at the end of their lifetime, they collapse in on themselves, condensing into a ...

There just might be a way for white holes to form in the Universe. According to a new, highly theoretical paper, the ...

New research suggests black holes may transition into 'white holes', ejecting matter and potentially even time back into the universe, defying our current understanding of these cosmic giants. New ...

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result ...

Most people are familiar with the concept of a black hole: a “hole” or extreme warping in space and time that endlessly devours any matter unfortunate enough to venture close to it. Even light can’t ...

In a study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists have demonstrated that black holes satisfy the third law of ...

It doesn’t take a degree in astrophysics or expertise on Albert Einstein to appreciate “White Holes,” theoretical physicist Carlo Rovelli’s latest book. But brushing up on Dante Alighieri’s work might ...

"It may take decades before we find out what really happens in black holes." Reports of the singularity's demise may have been premature. Earlier this year, new research suggested a potential solution ...

A new paper discusses how light interacts with theoretical objects called "topological solitons" — kinks in the fabric of space-time that look just like black holes. When you purchase through links on ...

A team of scientists has developed a recipe for black holes that eliminates one of the most troubling aspects of physics: the central singularity, the point at which all our theories, laws and models ...
